MARWANE PALLAS

The Doctrine of Signatures I.

In The Flesh.

The Doctrine of Signatures II.

The ‘doctrine of signatures,’ an important aspect of folk medicine, drew upon the belief that herbs resembling parts of the body can be used to treat ailments of those human components. Titling a series of self-portraits with this theory, French photographer Marwane Pallas uses forced perspective to link edible objects to body parts. Marwane’s work has been exhibited in NYC, Miami, London & Paris.
